Very nicely turned out Lister LD1 Autotruck.
The predecessor to forklifts !
I remember seeing one of these towing a "train" of wire-framed containers, mostly filled with parcels and mailsacks on a large railway station when I was a teenager.

The "Brough Superior" marque was the featured make for 2025.

I think this may be an SS100, as tghat engine looks like a JAP V-twin, but I'm not an expert on them.

Piece, more a fragment, of bone china found in my garden. Dropped many years ago.

Slightly over 10mm "square" with a delicate painted pattern, I think of flowers and leaves. The top edge appears to be a naturally rounded as a rim and there is some curvature, which matches some of my late mother's best tea service.
Conclusion, probably a fragment of a cup, and probably high quality.

Is this a Nuclear power plant?

The remains of roots on a stump, from the colour and state of these piece of timber, I am pretty sure that they are all "driftwood" - and some of the trunks probably washed up on the nearby beach ! Part of a planted up stumpery as part of the regeneration scheme.
